After confirming that she’s pregnant with her fifth child, Jessa Duggar is sharing yet another update: a sweet series of sonogram photos! She posted the photos on Tuesday, acknowledging her pregnancy for the first time on her Instagram feed. Eagle-eyed 19 Kids and Counting fans and followers of the Duggar family have been speculating for a while that Jessa and her husband Ben Seewald are expecting again. Months after suffering a pregnancy loss, it seems like they're finally ready to talk about the little one on the way.

Jessa shared a sweet message alongside the sonogram photos.
"Every heartbeat heard, every ultrasound seen, every appointment with a good report … the worries fade a little bit more. God has blessed us beyond measure, and YOU ARE SO, SO LOVED, my little one," she captioned the sonogram photo, adding the hashtag #rainbowbaby.
Her followers shared in her joy and excitement.
"Aww!! ❤️ So happy for y’all!" her sister, Jill Duggar, commented.
Many of the comments were a combination of well wishes and gushing over the latest Seewald baby.
"OMGoodness!!!" one person wrote. "I’m so excited for you and Ben!!! The little peanut is so cute and love how it’s sucking its thumb in the last picture."
"We had our rainbow baby on July 24," another comment read. "It was a huge lesson in trusting in the Lord. He brought us through it with so much peace and she is a beautiful, perfect baby."
The pregnancy announcement confirmed what many knew to be true.
Jessa and Ben announced that they were expecting their fifth child last month in a YouTube vlog — their preferred method of sharing moments in their lives since their reality show, Counting On, came to an end in 2021.
"After a heartbreaking loss last year, we are so grateful God has blessed us with a rainbow baby," she wrote, on her Instagram Stories, sharing the link to a YouTube video titled "A Baby on the Way & Romantic Getaway!"
The video mentions their previous loss.
"Just this past week we found out some wonderful news that our rainbow baby is on the way and we could not be more excited," she said in the video.
The video also shows the positive pregnancy test on the counter as Jessa yet again references their pregnancy loss at the end of last year.

Jessa's pregnancy announcement earlier this year was met with backlash.
Jessa’s pregnancy loss at the end of 2022 caused a lot of controversy amongst Duggar fans and followers. They felt she had baited them by sharing the devastating news of her loss in a two-part YouTube video with misleading wording and messaging. The announcement of the pregnancy was paired with the news that Jessa had miscarried.
But now, all eyes seem to be on Jessa's growing bump since her rainbow baby is on the way. We're sure it won't be long until the next update.
